Hi Carolyn, I sent your check to your address in North Carolina, before I realized that you weren't there. Hope Charles can deposit it for you in the meantime. I got my copy of the book, and it's great!! I love the way you have the marriages listed under both the bride and groom. I hate the ones that list it only under the grooms name, and then lists an index for the brides. You have to keep going back through the book time and time again to search out the brides for each surname. This is so much easier. So what book are you starting on next? I'd love to see the ones covering 1840-1860. I've got the Susan Ormser(sp?) book up to 1840, but nothing after that. I've got a CD that supposedly covers Missouri up to 1850 and from 1850 to 1900, but it has precious little for Howard county. Thanks for this book. It will save me hours and hours of eye strain reading the original microfilm. Kathy Bowlin
